E.L.F Likes and Dislikes: Free Gift Package

01:09 Handini Audita 1 Comments

Today I woke up with a total mood booster. As what I have said in my previous post, I am waiting for the free gift that ELF would give me as a present because I am their 325.000 customer who "likes" their Facebook Page. Today I receive the package which is way above my expectation. Since it is a free gift, I was only expecting to receive several sample packs of their product. Surprisingly they give me a box of full original content make up(11 pieces of make up). Yayyy..!!!! So Happy...!!!!



So the package was like this:



When it is opened, this is what's inside:



The content:



So, in total there were about 11 pieces of make up that they deliver to me. I tried them all on already today. Overall, I am happy with what they give me because all the tone colors they give is a natural color that actually fits to my Asian skin tone. Some products are outstanding, but some are actually not recommendable. So this post I will also write about the product review from the product I like most to the least.

1. ELF Studio Cream Blush in Heartbreaker



The most recommended product from the free package. Two thumbs up for this product. I am very pleased with this product because the color are very pigmented and the pink shimmer added to the blush just make my cheek pop like a doll. The cream blush is very easy to apply since we do not need any brush. The packaging looks so exclusive. It also looks very natural since it is able to blend generously with the foundation and powder which we have already apply before hand. To be honest in my skin I do not find significant problem in this product, but I may not suggest this product for those who have very oily skin.


2. ELF Nail polish in Mint Cream



I love the color. The fresh young milky color just fitted so much with Spring season. The real product is actually a bit darker compared to the color in the picture, but I still like it anyway because the color is so adorable. Being applied to my nail, the coverage of the product is quite good. It is actually comparable to nail polishes that cost higher than this product. However, the liquid is not very thick so it might results better if we double cote this nail polish to make the color more outstanding and long lasting.


3. ELF Lipstick in Charming



I like the natural color of this lipstick. If talking about the color of the lipstick, I have to say that this is one of my favorite color out of the lipstick that I have here in the UK. The least satisfactory things about this lipstick is the texture of it. When applied to the lips, it feels very dry. Perhaps because they wanted to keep it "matte", but compared to the other matte lipstick that I have, this is the "most driest" lipstick I have ever felt. The packaging says "smooth and long lasting coverage". I agree with the "long lasting", but do not agree with "smooth". However, since I love the color so much, I don't want to waste it. So before I put on the lipstick, I will put on thin layer of Vaseline petroleum jelly to reduce the dryness of the lipstick.


4. ELF All Over Color Stick in Honey



This product is intended to treats under eye, blemishes and skin redness. I really like the light and smooth texture of it. It can give a kind of additional glow above my cheek so I can look more fresh. It also have a fresh lemon scent added to it. The only thing that I least satisfied with is coverage. Perhaps because it is very light, that is why their coverage is not too thick. For skin like mine which have lots of acne scars, I may need thicker coverage to cover the scars. However, because of its lightness in my skin, I will definitely use this for my daily usage.


5. ELF All Over Color Stick in Golden Peach



First I was actually quite confuse about what to use this product. It is said to be instantly brightens eyes, lips, and face. I search in youtube in several "make up guru" channel to find out what to use with it. I found out that it can be used as eye shadow, blush on, and lipstick. So I try them on. For eye shadow and lipstick is a BIG NO NO. For blush on, the color is so light so it does not result any shadow. At first I hated this product (was thinking of not using it again). But after I experiment with it a bit, I find out that it is actually great to be used as a soft highlighter under the eyes. The soft gold sparkle gives an outstanding glow to my skin.


6. ELF Clarifying Pressed Powder in Honey



The powder is very soft and light. The packaging comes with a petite packaging so it is very handy to bring. The only dislikes about this product is about its inability to be long lasting. Specially for those who is very active outdoor, this might not be recommended.


7. ELF Tone Correcting Concealer in Light Beige



As a concealer, I have to say that it is the lightest concealer I have ever wear. It's a good thing for your skin, but then it does not cover your blemishes too good which means that the concealer does not do what it suppose to do well. The texture is not too creamy also which makes it more difficult to cover up the unwanted spots.


8. ELF All Over Color Stick in Pink Lemonade



This product is actually the same product with the "number 5" list but just in different color. The reason why I put this to be least preferred is because it cannot work as a brilliant highlighter. For eye shadow and lipstick is also a big no no. However, this product works well as a blush on (even though for me, the color is a bit too light for blush on). It's texture is quite similar to a cream blush but it is more moisture. I do not recommend this for oily skin.


9. ELF Natural Radiance Blusher in Coy



I am actually quite loving the Radiance Color Blushes packaging. Small, simple, and handy. I also actually like the texture of the brush which is very pigmented. The only thing that I do not like is the color. I just find it does not make my face looks fresh as expected. But overall, I may wish to buy the natural radiance blusher but in DIFFERENT COLOR.


10. ELF Liquid Eyeliner in Black



I am a big fan of black liquid eye liner. That's why I was very very very excited when I first open the box finding a black liquid eye liner inside it. But, after trying it on, it is very disappointing. First the color is not black enough. Second, it cannot be applied in one swipe so it takes ages for me to properly put it on. Third, the applicator brush is too thin for me. So I cannot say more, but I would not purchase this product in the future.


11. ELF Duo Cream Eyeshadow in Black Licorice



Personally, black is really not my color for eyeshadow. It just does not fit my personality. So this might be the first reason why I put it as my very least preferred. Second, I find it hard to blend. The texture is too moist and creamy so it is very difficult to apply. It feels like putting petroleum jelly on my eye. Third, it does not last long. The color fade easily just in 2 hours. Fourth, it's hard to do experiment with it because of the texture and color. So in conclusion, this product is a big no no for me.


So that is all my review about the product that I received from ELF this morning as a free gift. Overall, I am very happy receiving this gift (who doesn't love free stuff). Even though there are some "misses" in some products, but my satisfaction with the product overlaps my disappointment. I still say that ELF is a highly recommended product to purchase as a daily usage.

Once again, thank you so much ELF for the lovely gift...

I appreciate it..

I LOVE YOU E.L.F

Hugs and Kisses...
